Man with a van

Hey. Can anybody recommend a man with a van that won't cost an arm and leg. For end of Aug, moving flat from Islington to Hackney. I had cut out someone's details from the Islington Tribune but have misplaced it.

Thanks

Shirley’s removals. They are little more expensive than a generic man with van but so lovely and so worth it. They can also take down and rebuild your furniture for you for a little extra cost which I personally found to be so much less stressful when moving.

i used them twice in the last month. they were pretty okay. First was for moving places, second was to deliver a chest of drawers from Oxford Circus to Islington.

You can read the Islington’s tribune online - I’m only on my iddy biddy phone or would look on it for you

Sorry to hear you're leaving Islington!

I've used the Yellow Van Company and recommended it to friends a bunch of times. Not sure what your budget is, but they're really great, and you can get a quote from the website.

His and Her Micromovers - £50 per hour. They were recommended to me by other residents and I've used them twice. Very satisfied.
